Integrating Spamassassin with Scalix

[New2Scalix]

Dear Sir/Madam,

I can't find my solution anywhere. I had installed both Scalix and Spamassassin on my machine and it looks that they are working independently.

I followed the Scalix Documentation and when I had inserted SMTPFILTER=TRUE above the line RELAY 127.0.0.1 in the /var/opt/scalix/sys/smtpd.cfg (as every documentation and forums says) and restart the smtp service by omoff -w -d0 smtpd, omon smtpd, the Scalix stopped sending emails. When I comment the SMTPFILTER=TRUE and restart again the smtp service, The Scalix will start again sending emails.

Did someone faced this problem? Can you someone give me a solution for this please?

cheers

Can you anyone from Scalix members help me out on this please?

...t looks that they are working independently.

They are. Spamassassin is *not* integrated into Scalix, but into *sendmail*. Focus on the /etc/mail/sendmail.mc file. This documentation you've been reading is either incorrect or outdated.

The wiki has this documented and up to date.

Thanks alot for your reply. Sorry for disturbing you again. Hereunder I am pasting what I had added in my sendmail.mc, Can you please tell me what I have wrong in there.

dnl define(`confAUTH_OPTIONS', `A p')dnl
INPUT_MAIL_FILTER(`clmilter', `S=local:/var/run/clamav/clamav-milter.sock, F=, T=S:4m;R:4m')dnl
define(`confINPUT_MAIL_FILTERS', `clmilter,spamassassin')dnl
INPUT_MAIL_FILTER(`spamassassin', `S=local:/var/run/spamassassin/spamass-milter.sock, F=, T=C:15m;S:4m;R:4m;E:10m')dnl

Last three lines...

MAILER(smtp)dnl
MAILER(procmail)dnl
MAILER(scalix)dnl


I had already followed the How/TOs of Spamassassin.

I was reading on the net and I read that I need to add something to the /etc/procmailrc file but I don't have it. Do I need to install procmail to have that file?
Or do I need to change procmail to sendmail in the 2nd line from the end?

The problem is coming when I add SMTPFILTER=TRUE to the smtpd.cfg. Sorry if I am asking a silly question but I am doing it the first time. Thanks

Try commenting any lines with SMTPFILTER in your smtpd.cfg

Then work on the order of definitions in sendmail.mc. Order does matter in there.

define(`confINPUT_MAIL_FILTERS', `clmilter,spamassassin')dnl
INPUT_MAIL_FILTER(`clmilter', `S=local:/var/run/clamav/clamav-milter.sock, F=, T=S:4m;R:4m')dnl
NPUT_MAIL_FILTER(`spamassassin', `S=local:/var/run/spamassassin/spamass-milter.sock, F=, T=C:15m;S:4m;R:4m;E:10m')dnl


Take mine as an example:
...
dnl FEATURE(masquerade_entire_domain)dnl
dnl #
MASQUERADE_DOMAIN(localhost)dnl
MASQUERADE_DOMAIN(localhost.localdomain)dnl
dnl MASQUERADE_DOMAIN(mydomainalias.com)dnl
dnl MASQUERADE_DOMAIN(mydomain.lan)dnl
dnl
dnl # Setup the sendmail filters; milter
dnl
dnl INPUT_MAIL_FILTER(`filter1', `S=local:/var/run/f1.sock, F=R')
INPUT_MAIL_FILTER(`dk-filter', `S=inet:8891@scalix.somain.com')dnl
MAILER(smtp)dnl
MAILER(procmail)dnl
MAILER(scalix)dnl
define(`MILTER', 1)dnl
INPUT_MAIL_FILTER(`milter-amavis', `S=local:/var/lib/amavis/amavisd-milter.sock, F=T, T=S:10m;R:10m;E:10m')dnl

Thanks very much for your reply but it did not worked for me in this way neither.
It is still when I comment the SMTPFILTER=TRUE in smtpd.conf, the mail will work and if I uncomment is the mail won't work.

I can't find what is my problem. I have installed a clean installation of spamassassin and configured again but still the same. I have tried to change from procmail to sendmail in the sendmail.mc configuration file but it didn't done anything. I also tried to put them in order as you told me.

If you can help me out on this the better please.

Cheers!

What distribution are you using ?

Is sendmail listening on 127.0.0.1 : 25 ?

Cheers

Hi Dave

Thanks for your interest. I am using Scalix version 10.0.1.26. I think yes it is listening port 25. I set it from the /var/opt/scalix/sys/smtpd.cfg. I had inserted LISTEN=mydomain.com:25 under the SMTP Relay Configuration. Am I right on this?

Just to let you know, when I remove the line SMTPFILTER=TRUE from the smtpd.cfg, the mail will send and receive emails but they are not scanned by Spamassassin. What do you think that would be the problem?

Thanks

Hi dave,

I have started a clean installation of scalix and reconfigure it from new. I have noticed now that spamassassin is blocking my spam mail while I need it to only tag it. I have configured the local.cf as the following:

# SpamAssassin config file for version 3.x

# How many hits before a message is considered spam.
required_score 5.0

# Change the subject of suspected spam
rewrite_header subject *****SPAM*****

# Encapsulate spam in an attachment (0=no, 1=yes, 2=safe)
report_safe 1

# Enable the Bayes system
use_bayes 1

# Enable Bayes auto-learning
bayes_auto_learn 1

# Enable or disable network checks
skip_rbl_checks 0
use_razor2 1
use_dcc 1
use_pyzor 1

# Mail using languages used in these country codes will not be marked
# as being possibly spam in a foreign language.
ok_languages all

# Mail using locales used in these country codes will not be marked
# as being possibly spam in a foreign language.
ok_locales all

Is this good?

I also tried to comment the line ExtraFlags in the /etc/sysconfig/spamass-milter. Can you please tell how this file should be?

Thanks very much
